In this video I am comparing the 2 most popular Virtualization software solutions for macOS. Parallels 19 vs UTM 4.1. Parallels is Paid and starts at 99$ per year and UTM is completely FREE - it's an open-source application. There are several virtual machine software programs available for Mac, such as already mentioned Parallels Desktop and UTM but also VMWare Fusion, and VirtualBox. These programs vary in features, performance, and pricing, so it's important to do your research and choose the one that best suits your needs. To be honest, the best virtual machine that exists for macOS is definitely Parallels Desktop 18. No one will argue with this fact. It has a graphical, accelerator and the overall user experience is really good. But it's paid and pretty expensive. In this video, I want to help you decide whether you need to purchase Parallels Desktop 18 for your particular usage or if should you go with free software which is the UTM app. I will discuss all the important points, pros, and cons of both Windows 11 VM Solutions and I hope after watching this video you will be able to decide whether you need to invest in Parallels Desktop 18 or whether the free UTM app is more than enough for you. I will demonstrate to you how both Windows 11 Virtual Machines are performing the same tasks on my MacBook Pro 16 M1 Pro with 16GB of Memory.

The reasons can be multiple: for example you would like to use a special type of software that exists only on Windows or you would like to play PC games on your Mac and you don’t have Windows computer as a second machine. Which is the reason I decided to install Windows 11 on my M1 pro 16-inch MacBook. The M1 Pro & M2 Processors are very good at running Virtual Machine. --- Cloud Gaming Boosteroid: https://boosteroid.com/go/b/NVRjf — ✅ Subscribe to get the most out of your Apple Devices: @ArthurBrassart 📺 Enjoyed my video?
